Back Pew Brewing makes its home in the hallowed halls of an old church building, but don’t let that fool you into thinking our brewery is conventional. We chart our own course and venture into the beer-brewing unknown. We’re inspired by the unconventional, the strange, and the original. We aren’t afraid to brew boldly, and we never confine ourselves to the straight and narrow. We’re fueled by a passion to create damn good craft beer.
BEERS OF THE MONTH
JUNE
TOMS PILS
Pilsner, 5% ABV, 25 IBU
It was about time, but we made Tom a Pilsner. If you don’t know Tom, look for the red-haired German guy. This pils is meant to be to Tom’s spec- decocted for that German melanoidin aspect, carbonated higher for that nice bright carbonic acid bite, and hop forward with the traditional Hallertau Mittlefruh hops for an earthy/spicy experience.
HIGH PORCH
Watermelon Wheat, 5.2% ABV, 18 IBU
Hello summer! Watermelon is a characteristic flavor profile of summer in the otherwise hot and muggy Houston summer. Crisp, light, refreshing- all things you’re looking for when sweating all over, all the time. This American wheat base beer is hit with the watermelon hammer so it has a lovely, light, bright, and crisp watermelon flavor. Perfect for those stuffy Houston summer days. Enjoy often and responsibly!

OUR STORY
Bobby Harl, PhD, MBA – Founder and Brewmaster
Bobby’s passion for brewing beer started in 2008 on a home-brew set, and only grew from there. While earning his PhD and MBA at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Bobby also worked with those who came to be his mentors, Steve Scoville and Michael Kwas, who started Little Harpeth Brewing Company. The experience gained at Little Harpeth helped Bobby develop a further appreciation for both the technical and artistic sides of brewing.
In 2014, Bobby returned home to Houston with a dream of crafting beers full of flavor, rich character, and building an awesome place for friends and family to enjoy them. Thus began Back Pew Brewing.
